The big news story of the day: John Boehner will resign from Congress at the end of October.
“WASHINGTON — Speaker John A. Boehner, under intense pressure from conservatives in his party, announced on Friday that he would resign one of the most powerful positions in government and give up his House seat at the end of October, as Congress moved to avert a government shutdown.
Mr. Boehner, who was first elected to Congress in 1990, made the announcement in an emotional meeting with his fellow Republicans on Friday morning. …
Mr. Boehner’s stunning announcement lessens the chance of a government shutdown next week as Republican leaders in Congress will push for a short-term funding measure to keep the government operating and the speaker will no longer be deterred by those who threatened his job.”
Caught between averting a government shutdown and defunding Planned Parenthood (remember all those gruesome videos that infuriated the pro-life crowd?), loyal soldier Boehner fell on his sword.
“The early reports are discouraging,” Mr. Cruz said. “If it is correct that the speaker, before he resigns, has cut a deal with Nancy Pelosi to fund the Obama administration for the rest of this year, to fund Obamacare, to fund executive amnesty, to fund Planned Parenthood, to fund implementation of this Iran deal and then presumably to land a cushy K Street job after joining with the Democrats to implement all of President Obama’s priorities, that is not the behavior one would expect from a Republican speaker of the House.”
Mr. Cruz declined to offer his view of Mr. McCarthy, saying only that he hoped House Republicans “select a strong conservative.”
In other words, the GOP Congress will continue to fund Planned Parenthood and Obama’s amnesty. It will cost Boehner his job as a token gesture to the conservative base, but the GOP establishment hopes to replace him with someone just as bad like Kevin McCarthy or Paul Ryan who will carry on with business as usual.
and the winner of this year’s cuck def. goes to him.
Good riddance to “bad garbage,” only a month too late. Plenty of damage to be done until then. Welcome the new Speaker, same as the old one.
Has he had any meetings that weren’t “emotional”?
John Boehner, a lifetime crybaby who raised a mudshark daughter who married a Jamaican drug dealer in Florida. Preston Brooks would have caned him on the spot and would have been justified in doing so.
Glad to see the back of Boner. He really did us no favors.
Don’t feel too sorry for him. He will likely become a millionaire lobbyist now that he’s retiring from Congress.
Notice that they go to Cruz for commentary from a “strong conservative” view. Do not be fooled by this.
Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) is considered to be the next in line for Boehner’s job.
Not a good choice. Just as cucky as the cry baby.
I still say a new political party is needed. The patriotic conservatives get rid of one establishment do noting/ traitor to replace him with another. I’m been hoping that the Trump movement and the populist right will actually break away from the Republican Party to create an actual patriotic movement on the right.
After 5 years of working to implement Obama’s anti-white policies Boner’s greatest achievement was realized when he invited the Dope to speak before Congress and the American people.
Now that we have been chastened and properly instructed, it is incumbent upon us to open our borders to all third world scum.
Catholic churches will be able to replenish their rapidly emptying pews with more criminals, welfare leeches, drug dealers, rapists and Democrat voters.
Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Paul Ryan, Luis Gutiérrez, La Raza, Catholic Bishops, priests, nuns, The Gulf Cartel, The Sinaloa Cartel, Los Zetas and El Chapo are most thankful.
Having driven a stake through the hearts of the base (Whites) of the Republican Party he will step down in hopes of playing more golf with his groid son-in-law and Obama.

MSNBC calls for Boehner to pass amnesty before he steps down. This is a real danger.
It would be a two-for-one: 1) take away Trump’s central issue and wreck his candidacy and 2) please the cuckservatives, the cultural Marxists, the foreigners and the donors. I’m worried.

“Catholic churches will be able to replenish their rapidly emptying pews with more criminals, welfare leeches, drug dealers, rapists and Democrat voters.”
The US Gov gives them millions to settle refugees. They make so much money many churches have suspended other forms of charitable activities. Everything bad that is happening to white countries has scumbags making millions from the tax payer.
This bonehead probably believes he has a great life ahead of him as a lobbyist. I’d bet money he doesn’t. To be a lobbyist people on the Hill have to like you, and everybody hates this crybaby. I challenge the GOP to pass Shamnesty. It’ll be the end of their party and the Government will be overthrown to boot. Governing against the Will of the People requires backing by the military and a strong police, neither of which they have at this point.
Please make sure you have a strong stomach if you watch the above video. I wish Preston Brooks would be resurrected from the dead, cane in hand and visit John Boehner before he leaves office. Goodness he needs it. Where is Preston when we need him?
What? He didn’t jump ship and join the Commiecrat party? And why not? Wasn’t he ALWAYS a Commiecrat in disguise?
Nothing will change when the GOP nominates another RINO as Speaker of the House. The age of the Cuckservatives will continue in Washington D.C.
The cucks want Ryan to replace Boner. The anti-immigration base of the party loathes Ryan. If not Ryan or another Rino Boner will stay according to reports.
